L2 OvC was born at June 2013, considering its been 10 years I thought it would be cool to look back at the awesome journey this server went through. We've ran 36 IL, 10 H5, 3 Classic and 1 GoD seasons with countless amount of changes. Thousands of players came and went throughout the years. During our prime we managed to reach 591 unique online concurrent players. The longest lasting season was Interlude - 111 days long (between 10/05/2014 to 29/08/2014), I remember we had a counter on our site showing how many days server is online but it didn't know to handle hundreds, when it reached 100 it actually resetted to 0 😄 The second longest season was 89 days long (between 25/11/2016 to 22/02/2017). There were many more long lasting seasons of course until late 2018 where things started to change, the game did grew old and L2 OvC became repetitive for many players which is completely understandable, players started to come to OvC mainly to relax for a short while without plans to play for such a long periods, something we the admins had to accept and make adjustments for. Needless to say, we will continue to introduce new changes and features, including new game versions and maybe even different gameplay, being here for 10 years doesn't mean we're out of ideas (yet 😉) so feel free to stick around, join server whenever you can and of course, have fun !

I have suggestions about enchanting weapons, armor, or jewels. Just a simple example ( admins can choose for a balanced game what +++ will need to be ) First, we need to add another type of scroll for second-stage enchants. 1st Stage normal enchant till +8 2nd Stage to enchant +9 you will need a different type of scroll (a lot expensive than normal or you can get them by vote server) Successful enchanting will make your gear to the next +10,+11+... Failure can take down enchant by 1 or stay in current ++ successful enchant % needs to be low %5or10% At the beginning of the server enchant rate (I don't know exactly how much it is ) is 50% when maybe some % of the population starts enchanting his gear on 2nd stage you can increase 1st stage enchant rate to 80% because ppl who play less can catch up with others who play a lot, but the same time still behind them(they just entering stage 2 enchants) I know the current enchant system makes most of the active players leave the server because is hard to recovery after you fail your weapon for +10 and start again from 0 If you have better suggestions about my suggestion please share your opinion and let's make this server one good server to play for 2-3 weeks, I think most of the have duties responsibilities and family most of us can't spend years playing, we just need something for 2-3 weeks a max month to enjoy. P.S. Don't forget to donate 5$or10$ this will keep our project running.

Hi there! Im so sorry Yamada 😟.. i wish da best recovery, god bless u and ur family. Merry Xmas and happy new year. Cya soon.. 👋

Changelist #1 * Healers balance improvement: if a side has more healers than the other then that side receives healing penalty (e.g. order has 4 healers while chaos has 2 then order side will have 50% healing penalty). * Removed weapons with duplicated skins from the dressme system. * Fixed players didn't get mission achievement rewards. * Fixed Guardian's Defense Master ability skill not working. * Territory bonuses will now show on player's skill bar. * Improved Attendance System UI - it will now use Community Board and will auto popup between events if player has a pending reward.

Changelist #4 * Added newbie benefits buff - this will indicate what bonuses players get when fighting enemies with higher gear (death boost buff, better drops and increased attack/defense stats).

I didn't like this season classic, very high damage, fast pvp... I particularly prefer the interlude mode. I'm hoping to resume in the interlude version in a few months, just like years ago, where it takes weeks to make items and level up

Right now there's like 5 people on the event, and it's 3pm on a saturday, one day after the servers opening. There's literaly no better time than this for the server to be full of life, but it seems to be declining already. I think there's a couple things that could be happening, and maybe some of them can be addresed or consider for future seasons: The gap between the time that takes to lvl up and the time to gear up if abysmal. You can go up to max lvl in a single day with only a bit of effort, but buying all of the S grade equipment takes probably weeks. Starting lvl 82 was catastrophic. The time of lvling is too short, there's no sensation of growing. I remember when I used to play Red vs Blue, it took a while to reach max level, and you could feel your character was actually stronger each level you gained. Everyone has all of the skills since the beginning, so you don't even feel like you advance at all, you're always the same. You won't ever get to feel the expectation and then the satisfactions of getting a really important skill that will level up your game and make you badass. I'm sure there's more, like a ton of summoners running around hitting harder than an actual nuker with a summon that also hits harder than an actual nuker. But that's a balance between classes problem. I hadn't played in this server for like 3 or 4 seasons, so I was really expecting this with much excitement, but oh boy... I really wanted to play some more and get to be a powerfull player like I was in the past

Changelist #2 * Added Clan Entry system which players can use to easily find clans or grow their own clans. * Clan Entry system will automatically display on login to relevant people, but can also be displayed at any time from Grand Master NPC. * Clans can either choose to accept people to their clans automatically, or request an application form which they can review before accepting players to the clan. * Clans can also have Academy invites open in Clan Entry, remember once players graduate from academy the clan gets CRP and the player gets hair accessory, both sides win. This is the first step in doing some makeover to clans, more activities will be added soon, so make sure you have an active clan going !

As a regular player that stopped playing for more or less 2 years, my experience was that the pace of the server was too frenetic. I felt a little bit overwhelmed with the new content. Not because it is difficult to understand, but because of the very nature of the server: one event taking place to the next one with no time to digest the info. It occurred to me that first timers in the server would probably lose interest and fall behind faster and therefore quit. Maybe the community is losing here some good competitive players that would join more often a new season in OvC. And I think this has a direct impact on season longevity, since it is only the old regular players that make the seasons las longer. Therefore, I thought that maybe occational Beta openings before some seasons can help the newbies to get to know the server better, taste a little bit of endgame much faster and thus build more hype for the season to come. My suggestion on that matter would be for either everything regarding endgame to be instantly available or to multiply rates so endgame can be reached in 1 or 2 days max. I think in that way OvC may win the interest of new players that would join the stable community for at least a couple of years. In the end, it is just another idea to bring new players without modifying anything about the content of the server and my only hope is for this post to be helpful in any way. Cheers

Hello! To be honnest, i test with and without the jewels.. Screen talk about... ( Baium Level 1 And Dragon Ring Level 1 )

1) you must consider the lifetime of the server in a month basis like this: 1st week - C grade, 2nd week - B grade, 3rd week - A grade, 4rth week - S grade. becouse now it is too fast. rank restriction can be removed. 2) many players when server comes to S-grade fail to enchant to +16 and they leave, so you can think the failure not to return to +0 but instead to a penalty like -3 or if its above +10 to return to +10 or anything else... 3) Must be 2 siege competitions every week. One for clans (as there is) and one for factions. The members of the wining fuction during the week have xp/sp adena/drop increase rate. no change faction must be availiable and no restriction in the participation player numbers. So you can announce the faction winner at the end according to this siege results! my best wishes!
